| Popis: | Rectal metastasis from primary ovarian cancer is a rare condition. In this case report, we present a case of 45-year-old female presented with chief complaint of pain abdomen and vomiting and with on and off history of per rectal bleeding. On examination, patient was pallor, hemoglobin level of 5.5 for which she was admitted. On per rectal examination, there was circumferential rectal growth around 7 cm from anal verge. Imaging was suggestive of ovarian lesion with rectal growth. Biopsy and immunohistochemistry of rectal growth was suggestive of metastatic well-differentiated papillary adenocarcinoma probably of ovarian origin. In view of its rare presentation, we want to report this case. |
